Modeling Details-Southern
MODELING DETAILS-SOUTHERN Reference Source: http://www.hosam.com/srr/srr.html Southern Check Digits 08/23/98 SEMRA list Not sure if I can make this simple but here goes: Southern used A, F, H, J, K, L, R, T, W & X on their engines. let us assign numbers to the above digits A=0, F=1, H=2, J=3, K=4, L=5, R=6,T=7, W=8 AND X=9. Take the engine number say 3971 which is an X. Add first number to 2 times the second number plus the third number plus 2 times the fourth number. 3+(2*9)+7+(2*1)= now this won’t work if the formula is applied straight away. If any result such as (2*9) which is 18 then you use the two digits in 18 as 1+8. Now the formula becomes 3+(1+8)+7+2=21. WE are not there yet. You subtract the answer from the next larger even number in units of 10. In this example this would be 30-21=9 OR X. Another example might be engine 701 which is a J. Since there are only 3 digits simply put a zero in front. This will give 0+(2*7)+0+(2*1)= 0+(1+4)+0+(2)=7 10-7=3 which is J. ATLAS HIGH-HOOD GP-38'S Guys, I was just looking over one of the new Atlas GP-38HH models and I noticed a detail part that was missing from the shell and one that some of you may want to add. -

MSC Newsletter 7-2017.Pub
The Mid-South Flyer Summer 2017 A Publication of the Mid-South Chapter of the Railway & Locomotive Historical Society, Inc July Meeting Relics of Alabama railroads featured on film In his classic homage to the passing of the American pas- senger train, City of New Orleans, singer-composer Arlo Guthrie sang about the “disappearing railroad blues.” An- other heralder of the American past, Glenn Wills has also recorded the disappearance of the country’s railroad legacy, in this case through timeless photographs of railroad relics scattered across the Alabama landscape. A railfan himself, Wills has taken hundreds of photos of abandoned railroad artifacts as part of his larger work of documenting what he calls “forgotten Alabama,” which became the title for two volumes of photography of old and forgotten places and things across Alabama. Wills will be presenting a talk and slide presentation of his railroad sub- jects, followed by a book signing at the July 15 meeting of Abandoned AB&C “pay car” at Bessemer, Alabama the Mid-South Chapter. What started as a chance encounter of noticing an old car along the highway and not having a camera, became Will’s mission. Over the course of the last ten years, he has visited all of Alabama’s 67 counties, logged 30,000 miles and took close to 15,000 photographs. Be it an old house, an abandoned store, a derelict bridge or any number of other physical reminders of the past, all of these played a role in our lives at one point. Glenn felt the need to save those memories in a book, Forgotten Alabama. -
